“Folks looking for a tax writeoff?”

Nothing else makes any sense.

And five years after that it will be sold for $1 like Newsweak was.

Buying Time for $190M? That’s a lot to pay for a dinosaur.

Either that, or monetize the old content. But except for the 1938 Man of the year copy and picture, I can’t see much value there.

Print advertising is on the decline and Time cut circulation down from 3 million to 2.3 million earlier this year, according to the Alliance for Audited Media.

However, the Benioffs said they’re hopeful given Time’s large audience and expanded online presence.

Hope springs eternal.

Time is a joke. The two page Weekly Reader would be a better purchase.

As I recall, Benioff is way out there

To say this far left POS won’t have any influence on content is BS

Just more lies from these frauds

That’s probably $189,000,099.00 more than it’s worth.

I’d call it $188 million for time.com and $2 million for the rag

It’s a leftwing rag. I wouldn’t pay 2 cents for it.
